Dancers Information

This resource is the result of a two year research project looking at working conditions in the strip and lap dancing industry, based at the University of Leeds from 2010-2012 by Dr Teela Sanders, Dr Kate Hardy and Rosie Campbell. The full findings can be found here.

This information is written for dancers and mainly by dancers as consulting with women who work in the industry has been at the heart of the research. We have also spent a lot of time working with Local Authority Licensing Committees to get dancer welfare and working conditions on the agenda in terms of the licensing process.

The safety information was written in partnership with the Suzy Lamplugh Trust, whilst we wrote the tax awareness information in association with HM Revenue & Customs.
